RE: [Xen-users] Most of You Have Probably Seen This 100 Times, But...

My new theory is that the VNC server is not starting because Xen networking is 
not properly configured. My only clue is that the following lines appear in 
/var/log/messages when I try to create a Xen domain:

Mar  1 07:04:31 vmhost01 kernel: device tap0 entered promiscuous mode
Mar  1 07:04:31 vmhost01 kernel: xenbr0: port 3(tap0) entering disabled state
Mar  1 07:04:31 vmhost01 kernel: device tap0 left promiscuous mode
Mar  1 07:04:31 vmhost01 kernel: xenbr0: port 3(tap0) entering disabled state
Mar  1 07:04:32 vmhost01 kernel: device vif15.0 entered promiscuous mode
Mar  1 07:04:32 vmhost01 kernel: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): vif15.0: link is not ready

I'd start with verifying that /vm/ts05/ts05.dsk and 
/download/Win2003x64/disk1.iso actually exists. Next, verify that udevd is 
istill running.

Other than that, the most common problem is probably X display problem. Are you 
running it on a remote host or local X display?
